 | Description: | SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES include: new 2K digital restoration, introduction by Ingmar Bergman from 2001, new interview with actor Harriet Andersson, new video essay on the film's visuals, behind-the-scenes footage, and Ingmar Bergman: Reflections on Life, Death, and Love with Erland Josephson (2000), a 52-minute interview with Bergman and his longtime collaborator, and more. This existential wail of a drama from Ingmar Bergman (Wild Strawberries) concerns two sisters, Karin (Ingrid Thulin) and Maria (Liv Ullmann), keeping vigil for a third, Agnes (Harriet Andersson), who is dying of cancer and can find solace only in the arms of a beatific nurse (Kari Sylwan). An intensely felt film that may be Bergman's most striking formal experiment, Cries and Whispers (which won an Oscar for the extraordinary color photography of Sven Nykvist) is a powerful depiction of human behavior in the face of death, positioned on the borders between reality and nightmare, tranquility and terror.Cries & Whispers, presented on Blu-Ray by Criterion, is a haunting and visually stunning masterpiece from legendary Swedish director Ingmar Bergman. This 1972 film explores the emotional turmoil of three sisters as they confront mortality and unresolved tensions in a secluded manor house. The Criterion edition offers a meticulously restored transfer that preserves Sven Nykvist?s Oscar-winning cinematography, renowned for its bold use of color and light to evoke psychological depth. The cast features Liv Ullmann, Harriet Andersson, Ingrid Thulin, and Kari Sylwan?each celebrated for their powerful performances in Bergman's films. Director Ingmar Bergman is widely regarded as one of cinema's greatest auteurs with classics like "The Seventh Seal" and "Persona." Cinematographer Sven Nykvist won two Academy Awards (for this film and "Fanny & Alexander"), while actress Liv Ullmann has received international acclaim for her roles in both European art-house cinema and Hollywood productions. Criterion is known worldwide for its dedication to preserving important classic and contemporary films with high-quality restorations, insightful supplements, and scholarly commentary. |  | Actors: |
